Virginia Tech head athletic trainer Mike Goforth has said Friday that center Ryan Shuman will miss the upcoming Georgia Tech game with a right high ankle sprain. Shuman injured his ankle in last night’s game against Boston College and was put in a cast similar to what Tyrod Taylor was in last week and is on crutches.

Shuman was taken for X-Rays during the game, which came back negative, and underwent X-Rays again Friday for a different test. That, too, came back negative. Offensive line coach Curt Newsome said he expects Beau Warren to get the start at Georgia Tech with Matt Welsh backing him up.
